Rotating tires is just bringing back to front, front to back and switching the right side with left, correct? For example, the front right tire would end up in rear left. If that's all it is, I can do it myself, right?

hey guys well I just bought a set of 205/45R16 Yokohama S Drive Tires. the thing is that my friend can hook me up with a mounting and balance of tires for $50. which is pretty cheap. $5 for mounting, $5 for balancing and $2 for recycling the old tire. The shop where his friend works at is a small family owned place, and from the looks of the outside pics on Google maps. It looks like a whole in the wall place and it looks like it only has room in the garage for one car at a time. I'm only afraid that when he balances the tires they will become uneven and wear unevenly. At $50 thats really cheap at other places they charge you $60 for 4 tires, plus another $14 for recycling and what the hell is that TMWS fee?!!! I didn't get charged that when I got new tires 2 years ago!!!??

And yes the tires are obviously directional, so I'll make sure and let them know when they mount them.
